Happy Halloween!! I am ready for some Trick or Treaters to stop by...Hope we get a few, last year there werent very many...A special treat for me was having these CUTE cards to share with you that my Aunt Lori made...Arent they adorable! This is the last of the three and I wanted to share with you not only the outside but how Lori does the insides too! On the outside she used so many wonderful details like the spider web punches and ribbon she thread through a slot on the card! She is really mastering her copic shading too! Wish I could...On the inside she adds a Martha Stewart envie but covered it in coordinating papers...how clever is that! And on the right you can see where she put her green paper through the spider web cuttlebug folder...She thinks of everything! I love the matted labels too...I wanted to give a shout out to Sue who emailed me asking if Lori had a blog...Sue loved her work...I passed the message on Sue and Lori says maybe one day when she retires...but until then I can post more of her designs in the future...Thanks so much to Lori Hamilton for letting me showcase her work and sending me these CUTE cards...We love you!!!

Check out the tiny black gems on the label perfectly lined up...Please stop by tomorrow and I will have one more to show along with how she finishes off the inside of her cards...Thanks for stopping by! And special thanks to my Aunt Lori for sending these wonderful cards to our home...They are sitting pretty in the living room :D
Happy Halloween Everyone! I have a special treat in store for you...I will be featuring the card designs of Lori Hamilton today and tomorrow...I LOVE her work! She is great at layouts and details...Isnt this the cutest!! Here she used a Kraftin Kimmie image colored with copics and layered in complimenary colors! Stamping up glitter brads were used as embellishments and Lori used her cuttlebug on the green and orange paper for interest...I LOVE the punched out bat she added also...Please come back later on tonight for a new post of another of Lori' Halloween cards! Have a great day!
Hi! Hope everyone is doing great! I am ready for the summer to be over and fall to begin arent you? Its been really hot here in Florida! Today I wanted to share with you a card I made using some brand new Recollection stickers I found at Michaels...They always have the cutest 3-D stickers for the holidays...They used to be only .99 cents which was a steal! Now they are 1.29 but worth every penny! They make for a cute card fast....I just took the stickers off the acetate and placed them on a white piece of cardstock (I tend to place them just like they are on the acetate cause they are usually just the right balance) then I matted them and added a spider web border on the bottom...Some of these cute little guys have googlie eyes and the spider is fuzzy and soft...Some "Happy Halloween" ribbon was added for fun! Quick and Easy... Thanks so much for stopping by...Have a great weekend! Supplies: Recollections Halloween Stickers, Ribbon, Papers by SU and Recollections and Spider Punch by Martha Stewart
Hi! I hope you are having a wonderful week so far! Today I am featuring one of my favorite card designers, her name is Lori Hamilton...Lori LOVES creating and does it with such a passion...Isnt this card beautiful! I just LOVE the papers and colors she chose and all the details like the side border punch and tiny pearls...One of my favorite things she does is coordinate her envelopes to match (as pictured here) I just LOVE that!! I was the lucky recipient of this wonderful card along with several others she has made me over the years...Thank you Lori for all your wonderful work and creativity that you share with so many! You're the best!!
I have been on a Penny Black fest for a while now...Their stamps are just so darn cute! This is a Mimi stamp I recently got from my "Fairy Craft Mother" (thats what I call my Aunt) and speaking of my Aunt I will be posting a card made by her this week too...Its so pretty and I cant wait to share it with you...For this Mimi card I added a button and used some dental floss to thread it since its so easy to thread then some gingham ribbon tags to the right and some bling on a few of the flowers...I have been on a gingham kick too...I couldnt help but think of the Carpenters song "Close to You" when I named my post...Now I have to post that song! Enjoy! Thanks so much for stopping by today! Have a great week...
Hi! Hope today is finding you well! I have been having a blast making cards with Penny Black stamps...They are one of my all time favorite! Their images are always so cute and stamp a very crisp image everytime. On this card I stamped the image twice so I could cut out both of the mice and pop them up using dimensionals...I used my three in one punch by Martha Stewart to add the butterfly with a bit of bling in the center for interest...Then a bit of gingham ribbon on the right side for fun...Thanks so much for stopping by today! Have a wonderful week...
